Description

The capacitor boosts your tumble dryer’s power

As soon as the tumble dryer's motor starts, the capacitor releases energy and boosts power output. This extra energy speeds up the motor's startup by lowering resistance and inertia.

Once the motor has started to rotate, the capacitor maintains a constant power source for continuous operation.

What damages the capacitor?

A dryer capacitor has a finite lifespan, just like any other electronic component. It might endure normal wear and tear over time, which could cause a deterioration in function and lead to failure. 

The capacitor may overheat due to excessive heat created inside the dryer from continuous use, inadequate ventilation, or defective parts. High temperatures can cause the dielectric material to deteriorate, which can cause the capacitor to break down or lose capacitance.

Solved the problem

I watched the You tube ransom video and realised this was the fault with our Zanussi tumble dryer. The capacitor arrived quickly and was very easy to fit. After months of a sticking drum, it worked perfectly. Many thanks !

Great Service

During the pandemic it’s been very difficult getting appliances repaired. However, when I discovered Ransom Spares it’s been a life changing for me! Once you’ve diagnosed the fault and part needed (brilliant website filter system on here that’ll help you find the part) for your appliance they’re videos as well to talk you through fixing it! I’m a first time user of this website and through desperation I bought a capacitor for my condenser after watching video had confidence to fix it. I was ready to throw my condenser out! I bought capacitor for £8.25 and fitted it. It now works like brand new!! So not only saving environment by getting us repair our appliances for longer life it’s cheap too. Please give this a go it’s truly confidence building and rewarding and you’ll save money!! I’ve not been paid to do this review neither do I give them readily just want to share positive experience. Good luck 😉

Just saved me ££££

My Aussie condenser dryer was not starting. Ordered a replacement capacitor from you guys The fitting was time consuming (lots of screws to take out) but we'll worth the effort. I have a fully functional dryer. Thank you ransom spares.

Arrived soon after ordering. The capacitor was easy to replace once I'd completely dismantled our tumble dryer. Definitely worth doing rather than getting a new tumble dryer.

Great product

This was a great product which saved us at least £200.00 as we would have had to buy a new tumble dryer. As we have a Zanussi it was a little bit more awkward to fit but that was the design of the machine not the part. Very happy with the prompt service. Highly recommended.
